The Video Application

Use the Video application to play movies and other video content that you’ve saved or

downloaded to your device. The application also serves as a TV program guide with the

option to show detailed program information and related content, including social media

posts about the program you are interested in. You can use the application as a fully

functioning remote controller with your compatible home device. You can also play your

movies on other devices that are connected to the same network or saved in the cloud.

Some video files may not be playable in the Video application. The availability of the TV

program guide and the remote controller vary by market and connected device.
